Tag anyone?
I do not plan on tagging anyone so if you read this and want to answer the questions -- go ahead!
First of all, BTEG tagged me and here are seven random uninteresting things about me.
1. I had my tonsils out around the 5th grade.
2. If there are 2 switches to turn on a light, I want them both to be in the up position when they are on, and the down position when they are off.
3. I earned my varsity letter as the manager of a swim team.
4. I found this exercise very hard because I think I am an interesting person.
5. The first thing I made in home ec in 8th grade (1964) was stewed prunes.
6. I took my first jet ride to Massachusettes and when I got home, I knelt down and kissed the ground.
7. In college I most wanted a VW bug. They were selling for $1777 and I never could afford it.
I also was tagged by Cheryl to find out what I wanted to be at the age of 5, 10, 15, and 20
I don't remember being 5 years old so I can't answer that!
I don't remember what I wanted to be at age 10 -- I probably didn't think about anything other than playing outside : )
At 15 I knew I wanted to be a deaconess missionary to Papua New Guinea. I did go to Valpo to start the deaconess program (that's where it was in 1968) but soon became convinced that my vocation was to be a layman in the church. Ironic that I ended up marrying a pastor.
At 20 I wanted to be a wife. I had already met the love of my life and I was working hard at convincing him that I was the love of his life!

She convinced him, and he's glad she did.
Every good thing I've had in my life (besides the good foundation I had as a child) has come because of my wife, and the Lutheran faith she professed, and which I learned to love and profess. All my friends, and all of my blessings in adult life come from my Lutheran connection.

I agree about the light switches both being up for on or down for off. But sometimes I use it as a test to prove to myself that I'm not entirely obsessive-compulsive. "See? See? I can leave the light switches wrong. I'm normal!"
